Complex pages exceed log window buffer?

Abort button? Special filter? Not sure what you have in mind...

JJoe Wrote:Loading just one file and then viewing the log may help.

By 'file', do you mean 'link', as in "go to http://local.ptron/.pinfo/urls/ , go down the list of addresses that the test page (the one I'm trying to log) loaded, load one address at a time and view the log for each"?

JJoe Wrote:I saw your post at the list.

I figured, since I saw your recent posts there. Thought I'd try here, too, and add more detail.

JJoe Wrote:I don't have a solution other than the obvious, get the first half and then reload to get the second.

Thought of that, but also thought about how the GET, RESP, and filter match ID numbers will not match up between the two halves, even if I restart Prox to reset the numbering (though that may help some). However, it may still be possible to trace what's happening if the overlap between the two halves is large enough. I'll give that a try.

JJoe Wrote:The log window's right click menu allows logging to be paused.
Use the browser to stop loading.

Thought of pausing the log (with CTRL+P), but not of stopping the browser. That may be the best, because it may not be possible to change focus from the browser to the log window quickly enough to pause it in time.

JJoe Wrote:All the addresses may be found in http://local.ptron/.pinfo/urls/ .
MaxCapURL in the cfg file can increase the number of addresses shown.

That will help, but I also need to see URL-killer filter matches to find out if anything essential is being blocked. /k-killed connections apparently do not show up in the list of addresses (I just tested that out on a couple of pages that link to domains I have blocked).

It's a start, and it's more than I had before. Thank you.
